In the age of technology, caring about the environment and going green has never been easier, or more important.With water and heating prices rising, people are looking for new and innovative ways to save the planet while keeping household costs to a minimum.

There are tons of different ways that you can be eco-friendly, and why not start where you start your day; in the bathroom. Remembering to switch off the tap while cleaning your teeth is a great way to make sure you’re not wasting water (or money), and choosing a shower over a bath can minimise both water costs and usage. Jumping in the shower instead of running bath will save up to 35 litres of water every time. Keep your shower cool to lower carbon emissions, and if you can, limit them to less than 5 minutes. Having an eco-friendly shower head that regulates your water flow is also a good way to help you monitor and control your usage. You can find a great range of luxury Eco shower heads on the Mira Showers website.

Eco-showering is the new interior design craze – giving environmentally conscious people that extra element to consider when redesigning their bathroom. If you’ve decided on a complete bathroom overhaul, invest in some green shower products and be kind to Mother Nature. A great place to start is with your showerhead itself – eco heads use innovative new technology to reduce water usage by up to 75%, without you having to sacrifice the great shower experience you know and love. In other words, there are a lot of easy and inexpensive ways to wash away your carbon footprint with your shampoo!

Whether your bathroom is chic, vintage, ultra-modern or classic, there is a quick and affordable way to greenify your bathroom. Take the first step towards reducing your carbon footprint today.
